8.8.2010 Porkkala

Last of Sylvi's day monsters. This system had born earlier in the day in Belarus, from where it bulldozed it's way to Finland for the evening. This amazing squall line had generated around 30 m/s winds widely in Estonia. It clocked 25-29 m/s windspeeds pretty much on every weather station on it's path just before hitting mainland Finland. In Finland 25 m/s winds and heavy lightning brought widespread damage and distruptions.
Amazing mothership style shelfcloud was "best ever" for many, including me. In the southcoast the switch from daylight to darkness was impressive say the least, dakness came in about 10 minutes.
